It Seems to me that the Chevy racers are all concerned about the new combinations coming in Drag racing and I suspect they are correct as the chevies have for a long time a major advantage in the HP area? and now that advantage just may be no longer there especially if the new combinations are in your class or you were building a bogus combination to run in the class the new cars are in, hey for years everyone told me about my old pig Pontiac work harder on your stuff which ii have big time almost out of money doing this, so now I say work harder on your stuff especially if the advantage you had is gone and the hp factor is now fair on your combination just my opinion.

Spike calm down in your old age LOL at US
By the way to all the chevy whiners let me know i have plenty of whining in my cellar.lol

Don,
I would think anyone in the higher classes, Ford Mopar or chevy would be concerned. We do run a 396 chevy. I am not whining & I don't think 405 HP is bogus for that comb. What you have done with the Pontiac is impressive but they mite put a bigger cam & intake on one of those cars & you would really have to go to work on your pontiac.

The Drag-Pak motor is a lone TB on a single plane intake (albeit a tall one).

From what I gather, Duell doesn't plan on running that car exclusively as a Stocker. The motor that is in the build pics of that car has to be for some other class.

The 2 TB motor was for exhibition/brackets only and was built before the Challenger was accepted by the NHRA.
